Unless he's a whole lot better than some younger, healthier guy on our roster, I would pass.  He's 29 years old, and since we are in rebuilding mode, that's not the kind of player you want taking up a roster spot.

I understand your points, but I still disagree.


Our defense could use some quality veteran leadership.. especially with the departure of almost all of our vets.


Aging players become an issue for 2 things: Injuries, and  slowing down/ lack of production. T Gip hasn’t suffered much from either, he’s always been in great shape, and 29 ain’t anywhere near 35.

Also, even if he’s gotten any slower it doesn’t matter too much because he’s playing safety.. not CB.

I’ll stick to my guns here. I think he’d be a great signing.

I would sign him in a heartbeat. We desperately need some veteran leadership in the secondary, and he's clearly better than any rookie we have and Wilson right now at FS. If he gets hurt again, hopefully he gives us at least a half a year to bridge to youth. Wilson is not the answer, that's for sure.

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
